Lords division · 17 Jan 2011 · No. 1

Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Bill

Lord Trefgarne moved that the question that amendment 59 be agreed to be now put. The Committee divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 89

Contents: 219 Not Contents: 130

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 89 votes. The Government's position was Content, and it won.

How the parties voted

Contents

Conservative 126
Liberal Democrat 60
Crossbench 20
Non-affiliated 12
Lord Speaker 1

Not Contents

Labour 117
Crossbench 8
Non-affiliated 5

The party breakdowns are our own analysis of the official voting records (recorded votes only; they do not describe the formal whip). How we work this out.

Peers attend divisions ad hoc, so there is no did-not-vote list. Tellers are counted in the Content and Not Content totals, unlike in the Commons.

Tellers: Lord Trefgarne (Content), Lord Shutt of Greetland (Content), Lord Bassam of Brighton (Not Content), Lord Tunnicliffe (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (217)

Not Contents (128)

Tellers (4)
